Because Nothing Matters Vol. I: Because Nothing Matters, #1

By Reverend Grey

Avery Griffiths' privately investigated esoteric documents have, at long last, been greenlit for a public release. Several decades of self-induced madness accompanied by the unending torment of the cosmos have brought an abrupt end to further studies. The shadow-soaked study remains empty to this day. The entries laid before you tell of horrors beyond comprehension that have long since passed. The uncaring eyes of gods beyond our understanding watch for their amusement. Will you entertain with dignity or crumble beneath your fragile mind?

Dedicated to the supportive family, friends, Great Old Ones, and the Master of Macabre. You are all, truly wonderful. Thank you.

Epigraph

The oldest and strongest emotion of mankind is fear, and the oldest and strongest kind of fear is fear of the unknown.

Note from Avery

I am logging this note for future reference if either my files or myself mysteriously disappear for some unknown reason.  I am Private Detective Avery Griffiths, I've been anonymously contracted to examine and investigate a series of letters, notes, and journal entries that have been uncovered over recent years.  This collection supposedly goes back decades.  My informants have currently provided me with limited information, despite insisting that there is some sort of great connection that they require me to discover.  The contractor urges me not to delve too deep into this case for my own well-being.  It's for your own good, they said.  Although I am skeptical as to what danger I may face, I have a job to do.  I will go to any rational lengths to obtain my answers as well as my pay.

Where this rabbit hole takes me, I am yet to discover.  However, in the event that my employer permits it, I may publicize my discoveries and any correlating documents.  If this is the case, the alias Grey will suffice for any involved in the process.  Any content set to be published will go through a privately funded editor before reaching the public eye.  Any decisions or alterations they make will go
